Southern Style Cheeseburger Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Brown the beef in a skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook until translucent. Season with salt and pepper. Drain excess fat.
  3. Layer the filling: Place the pie crust in a 9-inch pie dish. Spread the beef and onion mixture evenly in the crust.
  4. Top with cheese: Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the beef mixture.
  5. Make the batter: In a bowl, whisk together the milk, mayonnaise, flour, eggs, and mustard (if using) until smooth.
  6. Pour the batter over the cheese and beef layer. Spread evenly.
  7. Bake for 35–40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and set. A knife inserted in the center should come out clean.
  8. Cool slightly, then slice and serve warm.

Description

Golden on top with a bubbling, cheesy crust and hearty, meaty filling underneath, this pie is pure comfort. The rich cheddar melts into the savory beef and onion base, while the mayo-egg-flour topping forms a soft, biscuit-like layer that holds everything together. Each bite tastes like a Southern burger in casserole form — warm, satisfying, and a little nostalgic.
